Avalon sets a new standard in river cruising! Built to create a warm and pleasant ambiance, and with the travelers' comfort and safety in mind, our vessels are sleek and elegant and part of a new generation of river cruisers, with state-of-the-art technology. These ships offer larger accommodations with hotel-style beds, modern private facilities, satellite television, floor to ceiling sliding glass doors in most staterooms and some cabins with private balcony. There's internet access, fitness equipment and much more.
Luxurious Amenities On each vessel panoramic views entice diners in the restaurant and public lounge, and there is ample outside viewing space. Enjoy a drink at the bar or in the lounge. Delight in the romantic European landscape as you sit outside on the Sun or Sky Deck. These ships have English-speaking staffs, non-smoking interiors, and Continental cuisine that appeals to the North American palate. You'll enjoy open seating and a leisurely single sitting at mealtimes, plus local wines and choice of entrees with every dinner.
Depending on the ship, travelers can work out in the gleaming fitness center, walk around the walking track, relax in the whirlpool, play a game with large chess pieces, visit the gift shop for souvenirs, or splash in the fun-pool. For those who want some pampering, there is a salon and massage service. Plus the quality furnishings, bedding and appointments lend a luxurious feel to just lounging around. Each vessel is designed with the passenger's complete comfort in mind.
Created for the North American market These new ships are built for the North American market, with either entirely non-smoking interiors (Europe and Galapagos) or smoking restricted to specific areas (China and Egypt). The crews are English speaking. Staterooms are larger than most other river cruise vessels with comfortable beds and large windows to view the passing scenery. Meals are tailored to North American tastes, and in Europe coffee and tea are available at no extra charge throughout the day.
